Here is a photo of old Varaždin's City Hall I took yesterday evening.The City Hall is placed on the central city square-King Tomislav Square.It was built in the first half of 16th century in Gothic style and altered many times through centuries.

Today I would like to show you how you can make some winter decoration.Of course,you can use other materials you found on your walking through parks,woods,beaches.Maybe is also something to find on markets or spicy stores.

Here is what I have for my winter ball today:

You will need also a plastic glue pistol and some artificial material balls you can find at some hobby store.Using the plastic glue pistol stick pieces on the ball:

And here is one finished winter ball:

You can combine this ball with big pine cones and grass ball to decorate your shelfs or the table:

You can also add some coloured wooden pearls or whatever other materials you like to make your own winter balls.

I was away from here last week solving some unexpected little problems,working at the hospital each day,spending the time with my family,going round looking for lot of things,drinking coffee with some old friends and meeting some new..But I'm free from my dutie since yesterday and I will be at home until 26th December using my free days.I hope I'll have more time to be here.

I haven't yet presented to you the finished painting "Two bells".And here is also the photo of origin bells hanging in an old citadel.My intention wasn't making of one copy of this photo but my version of this two bells so I changed colours and added lot of gold for some festive mood.I really love brown colours in all parts of the year but especially in December in brown-gold combination.Maybe so much of gold looks to much ornate but Christmas is comming..

It is The First Advent Sunday today and here is my Advent wreath for this year.It is not a classical wreath:I made it from an old ceramical plate painted with acrylic colour.Its margin is sprinkled with gold powder.Here is all what you need for making of that kind of wreath and of course you can use other colours and materials.
